To any concerned parties:

  I was just notified that the following two MIME types have now been
officially registered by the ietf for use in (any) application(s).

         application/vnd.wrq-hp3000-labelled
         application/vnd.minisoft-hp3000-save

So, for those interested in transporting HP3000 specific files around the
'net, you now have two officially-registered MIME type choices to use.

For instance, if you want to send (e-mail or via www) an HP3000 file
encoded using Reflection's R1-labelled format, you can use the first type;
if you want to send it encoded using Minisoft's "hp3000 save attributes"
format, use the second.

It'll take a while for these types to make their way into folks browsers
and other e-mail packages (though NetMail/3000 will support both labels in
a release within the next week - we already support both encodings, just not
using the official labels).

I'll attach both descriptions to this message.
